Human Resources Performance Management/Rewards and Recognition

Trends

Executives, operational chiefs and personnel managers must ensure that their systems of rewards and recognition are carefully aligned with overall strategic and operational goals. Rewards and recognition systems misaligned with corporate objectives can result in behavior that is not anticipated or desired by management. These unanticipated actions may be personally beneficial to front-line sales reps, manufacturing floor managers or even senior executives, yet they move the company away from its overall goals or cause systemic harm.

In addition to measuring the progress of employee performance toward corporate goals, well-defined performance measurement systems help gauge employee reception, understanding and buy-in for reward systems. This critical feedback can help managers make adjustments necessary to drive improvements and avoid the unanticipated behaviors and actions that negatively impact corporate goals.
